[Oh, there are so many laws. One day, if she expressed interest, he'd tell her of the ones that had fallen out of fashion. He'd tell her about the ones that were so stupid people refused to believe they'd ever existed. Ones about donkeys in bathtubs or how no one could wrestle a wild alligator (did that mean they could wrestle a friend's pet alligator, and when was it okay to own them in the first place?). He wasn't a lawyer and never wanted to be. His line of work made him know plenty about the law, even if he didn't talk about it much. No reason to when everyone else he worked with knew just about as much as he did, if not more.]
My father worked on boats all my life. Still does. Where I grew up, you learned to swim around the same time you learned to walk. Fishing was a natural evolution. Rules are different in different states, different waters, different kinds of fish, and it's a lot to know, but I've got to know it for here. I didn't know all of it back home, but it's Florida. I own a boat shop. Bit of a requirement.
You fish or hunt or anything back where you're from?
